40Weeks and Nothing

[Mariia_14]

I'm 40weeks+1 . Not dilateing I'm barely 2cm :/ (if so)
What can I do to help start labor.??
If I don't go into labor I will be induced Wednesday and not really wanting that. Any suggestions??

That is what my mom tells me. But the doctor already booked me in for induction, :(
Just Hope I go into labor on my own:)

u know sometimes the due date is not right and maybe u are 39 weeks i think like that cause the baby will come out when is ready but yes i dont like when the doctor are more than ready to do something about it

My baby was still high up until I started to push maybe you need a boost like I did because like I said my body was in labor already it didn't give the pitocin time to work

Thankyou, I've been walking as much as I can but my feet get really swollen and hurt:( I got my membrane stripped again today I hope that helps a little, although doc. Said I was still a little high up..
But definitely not taking that oil now with what you said.

Let your body.do its.own thing i walked, did squats and had sex up until I was "induced" I went from a fingertip to 2cm dilated in 3.days without me taking anything to induce my labor.and when.I was admitted.to the hospital they put cervidil and.in 12 hours of contractions I went.from 2.to 4cm and an hour later I was at 5cm they started.pitocin but.before.the pitocin did anything I was ready to push I did get an epidural at 8cm but my labor was amazing all I needed.was a.boost and.it.happened.with  cervidil my body did.it naturally only 6 hours of labor with 2 of pushing, I personally wouldnt recommend castor oil since it makes your baby poop inside and sadly if they aspirate poop it can cause major complications
